I spread that strip in a thin mist over the parts of the internet I interface with on a regular basis.

Good freaking luck.

“Naval Criminal Investigative Service is conducting an investigation, and no further details will be released at this time,” - He did something chargeable as an offense, the incident is being investigate prior to prosecution, and he was incidentally relieved of duty as a consequence of being incarcerated. The phrase ' relived for “loss of trust and confidence," ' applies to any being removed from duty for cause. I believe there is a culture of not wanting to admit flaws within the US military or any military, but it will not override dealing with issues. It might make itself felt if the issue was minor. It definitely has effect on casual conversations. Good point. Listening to him ramble makes me feel dumber. I have at times changed the channel to just not hear his voice.

I just got a military history book as a gift via Amazon. Thank you, Professor Tomoe I suspect.

Bad experience with the SMA visiting the tactical site I was working on in 82. We literally put on more of a dog and pony show than we did when the commander 4th Allied Tactical Air Forces who, I might add, is a 4 star general [granted USAF] and in our direct line of operational command. For the 4ATAF dude we did two crew drills, one so he could watch the fire control (i.e. the radars) platoon doing our thing, one so he could watch the launcher folk do their thing. We did this during "hot status" so it was normal day to day training for us, as we did at least 3 drills a day during hot status, sometimes more if the BCO had a burr up their butt. For the SMA? We faked doing daily checks. A more staged production would only happen if Kubrick was there.

Some where between "about time" and "locking the barn door after the horse escaped" here. https://kyivindependent.com/meta-blocks-russian-state-media-across-its-platforms-amid-foreign-interference-activity/?mc_cid=4bd5f27f38&mc_eid=c814a7f7f0

Most CSA have been Sergeant Majors for at least 10 years. Their contact with lower enlisted (and by that I mean E-7 and below) is limited and any advice they may have is more "back in my day..." crap that CSM tend to spew. I may be a bit bitter and biased here.

Kind of like how he's 'taking territory from the Ukraine'.

If the British and Ukrainian estimates are even nearly correct, this suggests that Russia has sustained somewhere around 150% losses since the invasion commenced. I am having some trouble seeing this as a historical triumph.

/me throws stars around like he was a ninja on speed.

A Flying Sorcerer?

According to Trump, Democrats kill babies after they get born and immigrants eat the pets of American citizens. Nice leader you got there, Republicans.

You are aware the the USAF files Pegasus now https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_KC-46_Pegasus

I love Explorer. Best cat I've had in decades. That being said she's in the dog house right now. She woke me up about an hour ago by jumping off the bookcase on to my chest. She's play attacking my feet right now and just drew blood. Love her, but sometimes she's a bit naughty

Stephan Pastis nails the issue

Going to add, this was at a basic training base, my guess is this has to do with using his position of authority for inappropriate pressure for sexual favors.

Fortunately Xitter is there to take up the slack.

Ohmydearlord. My left knee started swelling up on me tonight. Pain level 9. Mrs. Prof got after the drain tube and started "milking" it, managed to get some of the fluids out of my knee. Don't know if that was a permanent or temporary fix, but it's feeling like a temp fix. My drain site is starting to sting again, bringing the pain level back up. I took my Dilaudid 90 minutes early and at an emergency strength. I hope it kicks in soon. I'm working on the Bruckner again to take my mind off of things. It's not getting the job done.
